Abstract (en)

[origin: US4854255A] A sailing provision includes a multiprofile sail with a plurality of individual profiles, which overlap each other and which are variable in their distance from each other. The multiprofile sail replaces conventional one piece head sails or main sails. The multiprofile sails can be trimmed via a special rope construction and can be tensioned in windward or leeward direction. Since the individual profiles can be rotated rapidly around their axis near the luff of the sail, the system offers a capsizing security independent of tensioning in windward or lee direction and/or independent of the heeling angle.
